Three rules my Bluesky non-mutual unfollow script uses to avoid churn flags

I'm growing a Bluesky account to distribute content for three AI directory sites — aiappdex.com, findindiegame.com, ossfind.com. The follow growth ramp I built in July adds 20–30 targeted accounts per day. The problem: not everyone follows back, and a list of 2,000 followed accounts where 1,400 are non-mutual is noisy — and, more concretely, resembles what spam accounts do. AT Protocol does track...

How I built AI model comparison pages: pairwise grouping, Claude content, libSQL dedup

My AI tools directory (aiappdex.com) launched with individual model pages — one page per HuggingFace model, with download counts, tags, and Claude-generated pros and cons. That's a minimum viable directory. But directory users don't only search for a model by name; they search for two models side by side. "Llama 3 vs Mistral 7B for a local inference project." "Which text-classification checkpoint ...

Deconstructing Agentic Planning: Insights from Controlled Multi-Turn Environments

What Changed For years, the development of agentic planning capabilities in foundation models has relied on large-scale, opaque internet data. This approach has left the AI research community with a 'black box' understanding of how planning abilities are acquired, shaped, and integrated. A new study, 'The Physics of Multi-Turn Long-Horizon Planning,' shifts this paradigm by introducing ...

Turned on a global permission in prod for testing, a client saw another client's ticket. PM messaged me. Now I'm in trouble. Help.

Mid-level/senior frontend dev here. Want an honest gut-check because I've been worried what might happen to me. We were building a "view tickets" feature. To test it end-to-end, the feature needed a certain permission enabled. I turned that permission on in prod, but instead of scoping it to just my own test account, I flipped it globally. I documented what I did openly in the task track...

Your Toolchain Checks Grammar, Not Facts

I went looking for one wrong email address and found six wrong domains. They had been in production for months, across six different server functions. Nothing had ever complained, because there was nothing in the stack capable of complaining. Every one of them was valid code. What was actually there Three distinct hosts, none of which I own. The first was the .com version of my own b...

API Pagination Patterns: Offset vs Cursor vs Keyset

Why Pagination Matters If you've ever built an API endpoint that returns a list, you've probably faced the question: what happens when the list has 10,000 items? Returning them all at once is a recipe for slow responses, memory exhaustion, and angry mobile users. Pagination is the answer, but not all pagination is created equal. Let's look at the three most common patterns: offset, curs...

Durable Workflows Are Great, and the Wrong Choice for Short Pipelines

With the Microsoft Agent Framework and its Durable Task extension, durable execution is once again a major topic in the .NET world. The idea is tempting: define agents and workflows in ordinary code, then let the runtime handle persistence, crash recovery, state management, distributed scaling, and observability. That is strong technology. At the time of writing, the Durable Task extension for Mi...

Why Every Business Needs a High-Performance Website in 2026

A few months ago I watched a founder demo their product to a potential partner on a spotty hotel wifi connection. The product was genuinely good. The website took eleven seconds to load the first screen. The partner never said anything about it, but you could see the moment their attention drifted — they picked up their phone "just to check something" while the page was still spinning. That's the ...
